Just now SC's mum called to tell me that his dear son couldnt finish the tuition hwk that i gave him. U tell me if its a lot hwk for a sec 2 kid- 8 bio short qns (of which all ans are found exactly in the textbook) + revision of prev chapters over a duration of 1 week. Come on, it shouldnt even take him more than 1.5 hours to complete everything. And if he were todo some planning, it will only take him abt 15min each day. But there he was, saying that he didnt want to do the hwk, didnt want lesson. Just being blunt, of cos its perfectly fine with me. Afterall, I'm not the one sitting for exams. If he doesnt want to put in the effort, then why shd I? Having to wake up early in the morning everyday is not an excuse for not having tuition cos I HAVE TO WAKE UP EARLY IN THE MORNING EVERYDAY TOO!!! I'd wish to wake up late on a Sat too.
I don't understand what some parents are thinking of nowadays.
